I gotta admit that this comic book is far from being one of the good comic books I’ve read in my time. But of course I will explain everything in this review as I always do or at least I hope so.

This comic book had a good and ambitious premise which I gave this comic book some extra points for having. 

This comic book attempts to dive into a world of magic and conflict but the way it is presenting the topic to us as readers it doesn’t make it that great as probably the author would have hoped for achieving with this comic book. 

The narrative of this comic book had the potential to be good, but the way the narrative presented the story makes the story feel very boring and uninteresting to me personally. The narrative would have worked much better if the narrative was different than what we actually got in this comic book. 

The plot in this comic book feels very disjointed and overly ambitious for a single comic book like this one.

The pacing in this comic book is very uneven and inconsistent, with moments that drag and others that rush past crucial developments.

The characters in this comic book aren’t the best, since they come off as one-dimensional and poorly made. But at the same time the character motivations and relationships come off as underdeveloped, making it difficult for us as readers to invest in the characters of this comic book and their journeys they have during this comic book.

The dialogue in this comic book aren’t better than the characters we just discussed, because at times the dialogues feels very clunky and lacks the natural flow that would help ground the story.

My favorite thing about this comic book was the artwork that it does have, since the artwork  is pretty vibrant and energetic, and it is showcasing a distinctive style that has its strengths.

But there are times where the artwork overshadows the narrative, leading to moments where the images do not quite align with the story being told. Which really made me angry in a way.

This comic book has another majority issue as well, and that is the fact that this comic book doesn’t establish a clear central conflict or theme which makes this comic book seem more like unrelated chain of events which don’t have anything to do with the previous event or the event after.

This comic book has some fun and intriguing ideas to it yes, but they are not fully fleshed out and developed which really gives us as readers more questions and annoyance than anything else. 

The last thing I will mention for this review and this comic book is that this comic book in a way lacks a  strong foundation makes it challenging to gauge the stakes involved, which had diminish the overall impact of the story for me personally as I was reading this comic book.

I Give This Book 2 / 5
